Identification of an optimized heating and fast ion generation scheme for the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator

A Doppler shifted resonance minority species ICRF scheme for heating neutral beam ions has been identified and optimised for the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator. Compared with more conventional methods, the synergetic scheme increases the normalised core collisional power transfer to the background plas...
